The electric train was invented in 1879. The safety bicycle six years later.
Unleasing the potential of these two “obsolete” technologies is our best bet at addressing the converging climate, health, resource, and inequity crises.

Those horrendous attacks cannot justify the collective punishment of the Palestinian people.

“The banks of the Seine used to be a 2-lane expressway for cars. Today it is a footpath, bike path, park, playground, sunbathing area, café and venue for a table football tournament. It’s wonderful that the Parisians are taking back their city & revitalizing public space.” #Paris

This Spanish city centre has been car-free for 20 years. 12k people have moved into the centre since the ban. The Mayor says vehicles don’t have more right to public space than people — & he’s been re-elected 4 times since banning cars. Pontevedra via @WEF
